Thanks so much for listening and following along in our read-along. This is really the most fun part of my job and I’m so happy to see so many of you enjoying yourselves and being encouraged to continue reading.

Just a reminder that you can join in the discussion in our discord server. You can sign up for our book club at teawithtolkien.com/book-club, just sign up with your email address and we’ll send you the link to our discord community.

Special thanks to our newest patrons, James and Christina. I appreciate you so much!

We’ve recently reached our first goal of 50 patrons and with that I said I’d hire someone part-time to help me keep up with our book club discussion, so I’m so pleased to announce that my dear friend Theresa Williams has joined our team and I’m sure you’ll be seeing her face around on the discord chat more than ever. Say hello and welcome if you see her in the chat!

My notes for this week’s chapters have been uploaded to patreon so you can print them out as reading guides.

Hope you have a lovely week and I’ll see you next Monday for:
Chapter 6: Of Fëanor and the Unchaining of Melkor
Chapter 7: Of the Silmarils and the Unrest of the Noldor
